I never knew about this scent before until I got it from office gift swap. I fall in love since that day! It is so fresh, feminine, floral & clean. Unfortunately it doesn't last long. It last about 2 hours or 3 hours top for moderate sillage. The rest of the time, it still there on your skin but only if you sniff it.

Since it's very light scent, I found it its perfect to wear for Sunday breakfast date with my husband and sometimes after-shower-before-bed for a good night aromatherapy.

I like this scent, it's soft and flowery, i find it a little sweet when it's drying up, but it's enjoyable.

One of my mom's all time favorite!
A very nice and clean scent!

Evening. Deep sparkling snow, dark alleys with some accents of light around and me, walking my dog, time, closer to a New Year period, and I've met Pur Blanca for a first time. Deep, warm & comforting aroma. I didn't know about this web back then.

UPD: BTW, that first edition used to look like a blue star shaped bottle.

Strong neroli note, with an INDOLE and White flower mix. helitropin in the end mixed with musk and a slight woody note.

I actually loved it before but sometimes it just made me feel sick. Still don't understand why, though I think the ylang-ylang is to blame.

Just two words could be used to describe Pur Blanca: powdery and floral.

This was my signature in a high school, when I was going through the phase of "bathing" myself in fresh, translucent scents with sparkling white flowers notes.
Back then all my friends were using Adidas or Puma body mists (ahhh memories from 90's) and for my inexperienced nose Pur Blanca was more "grown up & sophisticated".
My taste in scents has changed significantly since then and Pur Blanca is no longer my cup of tea.

It is safe everyday/office fragrance. Sharp vibrant notes of flowers are toned down with musk and sandalwood an the whole composition is inoffensive, soft yet feminine.

Harry Fremont has made some of my favourite scents. This is no exception. Powdery and floral green, fresh.

It is not a show stopper.

Longevity is not amazing, but in high heat and high humidity is works very well.

claritta

I absolutely love it!
I buy this edt whenever I find it on sale.
it is very light, perfect or all time and all seasons if you like delicate and light smells.

Jul 11 2014

lollsazz

On me, this first smells nice and light and fresh, but in a very short time, some kind of smell, resembling horse manure, appears :(

May 26 2014

tovikari

For me it is very delicate, elegant fragrance. It combines flower notes and cool and fresh mint notes very well. This smell sits close to skin, but person next to you would feel this light floral scent. My association with this perfume is girl in white chffon blouse with a bun on her head, her makeup is very natural.

This is a lovely pretty scent I got for very cheap and was amazed by its pure clean beauty. It received some hatred on forums because of its simplicity but it doesn't deserve it. It is simple, done with grace.

Its longevity is very poor so don't expect it to linger around for long. But I had the cologne version in a flask, no spray. The EDT of EDP may last longer.

At the end I gave the remains, about half of it away for shoebox charity last Christmas, I hope that its light and bright scent makes a teenager happy. It is so nice and unoffensive, and I'm not... so even though I liked it and it can make a day brighter I realised I need more complexity and wouldn't use this scent enough. I hope the current owner does. :)

The similarity with noa summer edition in HUGE honny !

marwa.qoura

I have it in the rolette concentrated form for the bag , and I should say I am very glad I got it in this form . It is the perfect "rolette" bag scent ..It's feminine , a bit creamy , clean and not offensive . Perfect to freshen a bit in Summer or Spring . It reminds me a lot of Little White Dress or Chic in White by Avon as well , but LWD isn't that linear and has much more interesting and a bit different note .I am happy with my purchase , it 's a basic scent with a good price . I may buy the full bottle of LWD but not this one .

Light and cheap iris fragrance. It's ok for girls, but if you're above the age of 16, I don't think it's for you anymore.

Feb 08 2014

izainbox

I wouldn't say I love it. It is just an "okay" perfume. Pretty safe to wear, it's not the type that would offend others' noses. It basically smells floral, clean, & feminine. It's linear and ordinary though. It's reasonably priced. Rating: 3/5.

kristine26

I remember this perfume, from when I was a teenager and its still awailable. Its is warm and intense perfume, good If You like, that people around You can smell Your parfume too. I can't wear it every day, because its realy strong and can get you sick, if owerspraying. But in reallity your clothes will still smell nice about weak after, because its so intense. Evening and winter perfume, I think its too strong for daytime and summer hottnest. Buy perfume- if You wanna strong long lasting smell, or buy- spray edt or deodorant, then it will be more weaker

Nov 11 2013

omneya.iskander

very nice, very soft, but you can't even smell it one hour later. too bad, i wished it to be more strong, and lasts for a longer time

Oct 14 2013

seme

i used it for years and i still, never get bored of it ,it makes me feel comfort and relax
i love this perfume from avon

Oct 11 2013

larita91

All the scents coming from this brand has this weird "avon" note. Maybe not aaall the scents, but a lot of them. For some it is good, for some, it is cheap smelling and terrible. I'm in the second group to my sorrow, I can only enjoy one or two fragrances from Avon.
This is not a goodie (to my nose). Very citrusy floral, I only smell it on my mum, she loves it. Therefore I feel like it's comforting, lovely scent, for my mum, not for me. I love it on her, but would never sray it on me.

Tsukinohime

I would say this is one of Avon's finest releases. There is nothing generic at all about this one. Up until now I never smelt anything quite like it. Too bad they discountinue this. Obviously they didn't know what's good even when it hits them in the face. Anyhow, I got a cool, breezy white floral scent, with a tinge of sweetness. Imagine lounging under the sunshade on a balcony overlooking an ocean, and gentle salty air blowing all over. That is how I feel when I wore this. Truly elegant and timeless. I wish they would release this again, together with Rare Gold. These 2 are my signature scents in collage! I really miss them so much...

Jul 15 2013

SzekelyEmoke

Used to have this as my signatur perfume, since I was a teen (14 years), and I still love it. :)
Very unique smell, which brings up memories. <3 Lovely.

BikiniBabe

Ahhhh the classics! Given how long Avon has been selling this perfume for i'd say hands down this is one of their best ones. The name Pur Blanca - meaning Pure White is really fitting. It's a very clean flowery fresh scent that women reach for time and time again. I had this years ago and i really did enjoy it =)

U can follow me on YouTube @ BeautyOnSale

I got this lovely gem from avon as a present from a friend,I gotta say I love it,I usually don´t give credit for avon scents at all,I don´t like cheap scents or copy´s from the real scents !! And from the ones I know,it reminds me a lot my summer signature scent Omnia crystaline, probably because of the water lily.. it´s very delicate, innocent,fresh,soapy,and has a huge sillage and longevity I mean,it lasts all day,and you don´t have to spray like crazy.. 3sprays are enough.. I love it.. Thumbs up for this one :) :)

May 19 2013

sarage

This is innocent, fresh, pure.. If you are looking for something inoffensive, something not rebellious, not sexy but beautiful, this could be it. It is not soapy in my opinion, just pure and clean.
I recommend to buy the deodorant too, to emphasize the scent.

Apr 15 2013

asta.ksivickaite

it was probably my first perfume I ever had. my friends and I loved it in highschool. I believe that every other girl used to have it.

Mar 05 2013

andreas73

A nice woody floral scent, that does not evolve throughout. The floral notes are very prominent since the beginning, and I can smell some crisp and sharp notes that remind me of black pepper, although it is not listed. Fresh, powdery, not sweet at all, it suits well on warm days and has a very good price for a daily use. On my skin it's a strong scent, with a heavy sillage, so I recommend only 1 or 2 sprays.

Feb 14 2013

TheMirjam12

A nice daytime fragrance but really NOT longlasting.it is really flowery but i cant smell any base or top notes. It is the same in the beginnin' & in the end

Jan 30 2013

TheMirjam12

I have it as a deodorants and perfume set. Also i have got a sample of it. The sample didnt last me a long time, but the roll on deo. Is great.. I tried the perfume ... Not that good. I mean u have to put on a lot to get the smell out of this thing!!

Jan 29 2013

BlueKitten

Well.... I got that as a gift from my mum-having read its description, I would never buy it. It's a fragrance "your mum/aunt would buy for you", nothing impressive, too flat, too boring, too "clean", too transparent. It does smell quite cheapy, and I would prefer its smell on a body lotion-it would still be boring for those who love more spicy stuff, but anyway.

It's not annoying to my nose, but rather like my parent's place scent-it makes you feel safe and warm, but if you are more of a rebellious spirit, you feel like you want to escape and find something that suits YOUR PERSONALITY.

I was really confused on voting, as it's not my cup of tea, but still, it isn't bad. I decided to give it a dislike because of it's lasting power and the lack of originality-flowers and musk once again.
For you who just want to feel innocent, it may be fine, but if you like more provocative/stylish ones, it's not worthy.

It smells a lot like washing powder, so I spray my clothes ...

Jan 04 2013

janelle70

I wonder if this is the same frag I got in the Philippines but released as "Pure Bianca" ... grown to love it because of all the fragrances I wore, drugstore or expensive, I can't believe I've gotten the most compliments for this! Of course, when asked (by men!) what I'm wearing, I'm too embarrassed to say. Yikes, my skin chemistry agrees with cheap perfume! :p

Jan 03 2013

kitten_purry

I like it, very good for the summer day because it is light, creamy, soft and musk ..

I've never smelled Peony Soft Musk from Avon,but now they are bringing it back in a shape of a christmas star and reading the notes,I decided to take a chance and ordered it.I've just receive my bottle,put some on me and at first sniff I thought i liked it.After a few minutes I realised it smelled familiar.After a few more minutes-BINGO! It actually smelled like Pur Blanca.I was so glad to find this out,cause years ago,when I lived in Europe,Pur Blanca along with Dreamlife were my very favorite frags from Avon.The scent is very soft,clean white and soapy-white flowers,woman in pure white.I missed that scent so much,now that is available in USA I'll order more bottles.Thank you Avon!And I so much wish AVON also brings back Dreamlife.

i had this long time ago....what i still remember about it has a very powdery smell but kinda fresh. not really my fav from Avon, but it's ok..

Aug 22 2012

scorpiodivamarian

I am not sure about this one
seems like the mint doesn't match the flowers here
the sillage is zero ,it's also too flat
I'm glad I only bought a sample not a whole bottle

Aug 22 2012

reddoor2000

Loved wearing this one back in the day.....loved the clean fresh fragrance,very sad the fragrance was discontinued.......

SheShe

I remember I liked it many years ago. It was a white, subtle, clean fragrance, very feminine and memorable. Nowadays I wouldn't like it, too much of white flowers listed, but I appreciate it, it's cheap and doesn't smell that cheap.

Bottle looks a bit Van Cleef&Arpels Murmure, but I remember I had a version with a plastic white cap.

Jan 20 2012

Beatrixel

it smells too crisp. it is too sharp. powerful scent, though feminine. a bit aquatic, but reminds me of fresh shower gel for men.
I did not even finish the bottle.avon perfumes smell the same to me.

Dec 22 2011

mariela88

IT S PERFECT, SUPER FEMENINE, GIRLY, DELICATE SCENT
IT S GREAT FOR EVERYDAY USE
IT REALLY LAST ON MY SKIN, MORE THAN DOUBLE EXPENSIVE PERFUMES

Beautiful. but i broke it( Many delicious flowers. Very feminine scent

Nov 16 2011

panshipanshi

Its very cheerful, very spetial to young ladies and its true, smells like soap or talc.
I liked it when I was younger, but with the passing time I felt something very chemical on the deep notes that disturbed me. I don't know why, but feel that those chemical notes are kind insulting.

Nov 13 2011

schauspielerin

It reminds me a bit of Noa (my signature scent), too. But it lacks all that makes Noa that great. Pur Blanca is more fruity and flowery, it has non of the spicy, balmy components of Noa. It is not complex at all. But it is a nice fresh after-shower-daytime-fragrance. It is carefree and happier than Noa, even a bit naive.

Nov 10 2011

whiten

it reminds me of noa. a nice,floral soft scent. definitely feminine though a bit sharp and not so sweet. I've just started using it, time will tell how I like it or ever repurchase it.

Oct 04 2011

tanjag

I am so surprised by preceeding reviews because in my opinion it´s beautiful scent - light, fresh, clean, airy and crystal. It´s refreshing scent full of flowers, perfect for daily use in any season. And by the way - soap´s smell is completely different...

Oct 01 2011

pcelica

it is to much pure I think.... something like soap

Sep 27 2011

perfumeholic88

It too light for me, too boring. Good for woman who normally doesn´t use perfumes or for shy women. Notr long lasting at all.

It's very soft and flowery. It was my signature scent when I was younger, but then I got sick of it. I like it, but wouldn't buy it again. I've just found out that are A LOT of better scents out there.

Jul 06 2011

Belil

Good girl scent.
Clean, gentle, innocent,shy and delicate smell. For a college student or a young girl in an office. Will not offend anyone and neither will not impress anyone too. I like this group of shy boring scents, and I wear them when the weather is really hot or when I lack confidence and just want to smell clean.

May 28 2011

Habanita

I re-tried this several times , because I often like white flower scents. This one just didn't get me. I found it artificial, alcoholic and not so white-flowery at all. Much nicer is "Bois Fleuri" by Molinard.

May 19 2011

RonaRona93

Its great scent , but it doesn't smell like a perfume it's like air freshener . it's soft , very fresh and clean but it's not a smell to keep you in memory :)

Mar 05 2011

i loved loved loved this perfume and i cant get it anymore in my area. light, white, clean, floral. the dry down leaves a whisper of these lovely scents for quite awhile. a favorite.

imperfect-angel

A simple soft and feminine pure floral fragrance.
smell cheap but still enjoyable.

edit: Now I use this for room fragrance. It makes my room smell clean.

I've just got 10 Avon samples. This is the first one I've tested. It is a soft, fresh floral, won't offend anyone, but I don't find it very interesting. It lasted about one hour on my skin.

Sep 15 2010

guest_PinkBaby

Well I had this perfume for 2 years in my bathroom and only used 2 times, i just got it here and i smell it..it`s a fresh/clean/floral/ perfume ,yes..but not that kind of very clean after shower thing, it`s more like...when you sweat and apply over the it, not such a clean scent...

Aug 16 2010

guest_Elle

I've been using this scent since 2006 and I still receive compliments. I love it!

Jul 21 2010

PricklyAndHot

White flowers musky fragrance.

Most of all I feel the freesia note and the musk note in it.

This fragrance smells on me clean and soapy, but rather floral sharp than light or soft. That is why I was tired of it very soon and don't like it.

Jun 16 2010

Richnata

Personally I've never had it. But my friend had it twice and it was leaving an excellent inviting and light train after she was passing along the hall. I would like to try it.

this is the worst scent of avon i've ever tried! just bought it this evening and it brought a big disappointment to me :(( i'm always easy in using perfume, to me- perfume means "always smell good", but this one is an exception :( i still love avon perfumes, though.

Feb 23 2010

chi_chi

this is a staple in my wardrobe. very safe scent. when i'm confused on what perfume to wear i use this. i think it can be used in any occasion.

It does have a nice smell on my skin, but it gives me an allergy - headaches and sneezing. I try to wear it anyway during summer days because it is appropriate, not the best though.

I think it's just nice scent, nothing more.

Dec 15 2008

nauticaa

THis one does not do the trick for me. It smells like its name says -white. Pure and delicate,aquatic, feminine. I would say it is a somewhat naive and boring perfume

Dec 15 2008

katyas

This fragrance I rather like, although it is a little stronger than I like. I think it is the mint that gives it a sharpness that always surprises me. It is fresh and light, as the name hints, and is a good spring fragrance - but also good for fall, to remember the spring, and for winter, to go with the snow and cold.

Dec 14 2008

Inani

it doesnt last on my skin,like most of avon's perfumes.

Dec 13 2008

Laurukka

I like this is one of the best Avon fragrances. It stands out with very fresh and flowery scent. It doesn't overwhelm and still it is very feminine. Great for casual use, but unfortunately it doesn't last long.

Nov 17 2008

Very feminine & soft, i Like it, but not last on my skin.

Mado Haddad

PERFECT !!
It's an amazing scent for Summer , especially if you're into light, watery scents. It's so fresh and it's long lasting on my skin.
In my opinion, I find it perfect for a hot Summer day in the city, wearing cute white T-shirt & jeans :)
I would pick something else for evenings ,vacations & special occasions.However, Pur Blanca is one of my fragrance essentials & one of my Avon's favourites as well :)
